Biography
I am a catchment hydrologist, biogeochemist, and modeller with a strong focus on understanding and managing river network dynamics. My research bridges basic and applied science, combining theoretical, empirical, and modelling approaches to enhance our fundamental understanding of hydrological and biogeochemical processes while developing practical tools to support decision-making in both public and private sectors.
My work investigates the mobilization, transformation, and transport of solutes from catchment soils—particularly riparian zones—to surface waters, alongside in-stream processes. While forest headwaters serve as my primary experimental units, my research extends to larger downstream water bodies, covering diverse ecoregions, from boreal to Mediterranean climates, and temporal scales, from rainfall event dynamics to long-term future projections.
Although much of my research has focused on organic carbon cycling, I work with a wide array of chemical constituents including nutrients, base cations, metals, sulfur, microplastics, and greenhouse gases. My applied research employs advanced modelling techniques to tackle real-world challenges by informing sustainable river network management strategies and guiding cost-effective water treatment solutions for the drinking water industry.
